Suppose an array “arrLongInt“ has 3 elements:
arrLongInt{1}:=1
arrLongInt{2}:=2
arrLongInt{3}:=3
You can use one of the following methods to reduce the size of arrLongInt to 0:
` Method 1: Redeclare the array to size 0
ARRAY LONGINT(arrLongInt;0)
` Method 2: Delete all elements in the array
DELETE ELEMENT(arrLongInt;1;Size of array(arrLongInt))
` Method 3: Copying an array with of 0 element to it
COPY ARRAY(<>emptyArrLongInt;arrLongInt)
